i think -- i was going to say what john said. when he was really ill he still went to the meetings. he went to one after having pneumonia and then came home. even toward the end of his life he went to meetings and pushed for accountability and change. he wasn't as shocked as i was by the campaign but was shocked -- >> [inaudible] >> you know what sweetie? there are a bunch of toys over there. the first thing that milton did -- here you can stand by me just don't touch the microphone. okay. the first thing he did was refused for vote for retroactive resolution and not like the board and rubber stamped things by the college administration and he refused to vote for anything that was already done. he was by sheer tenacity able to share this practice and felt it was the role to be of the public and bring this in policies to the college. he fought to inch what the culture of the board and question and access to information and evaluate what the chancellor and administration were actually doing, so he wanted to evaluate it but needed to know what was going on like john was talking about,

has john calins been called? >> good afternoon commissioners. i am encouraged by your conversation last week regarding the historic use controls and wanted to provide additional information but i wanted to first echo what tim just said. we get up here and talk about the things we want to see different in the plans but that is not to take away from the work and effort and time that folks from the community put into the plans and i want to acknowledge that and these comments are not to suggest that to take away from that enormous effort so what we have been talking about is potential maintain the current eligibility classes for historic buildings that can take advantage of these historic use controls. as cory mentioned this is a relatively limited number of buildings in western soma so it's a good start but we think there is a need to expand beyond just the existing controls. you know the key here is that in western soma there are these zoning districts that do have restrictions on non residential uses and that makes sense because the idea here is

john kevlin here with the law if ierv of rubin junius. i want to talk to you about two specific issues in the western soma today. first is the historic use controls that luke was just referring to. these are currently in effect throughout the eastern neighborhoods and actually currently in effect under the existing controls in west soma. and essentially what these do is for certain classes of historic buildings, it relaxes the use controls in them with the goal of allowing the buildings to stay under operation, giving them flexibility so they can maintain and preserve them adequately since they all are historic resources. so, currently in the west soma, excuse me, this is a little technical so bear with me. all uses are permitted in buildings that are landmarks, that are contributory to article 10 historic district, and that are article 11 rated. and i just want to make a note that this is already narrower than what's allowed under the historic use controls throughout the rest of the eastern neighborhoods. but what is being proposed right
